Marisol McDonald and the Clash Bash: Marisol McDonald y La Fiesta Sin Igual (Marisol McDonald Bilingual English/Spanish)
by Monica Brown (Author) Sara Palacios (Illustrator)
Marisol is turning eight, and it's time to plan a birthday party that will be fabulous, marvelous, and divine. She also hopes that Abuelita, who lives far away in Peru, will be able to come to the celebration.
At the party store, Marisol can't decide what kind of party to have. Nothing seems right for soccer, pirate, princess, unicorn-loving Marisol. Finally she comes up with just the right idea, and when her friends arrive for her Clash Bash birthday, a big surprise awaits. But in a heartwarming turn of events, Marisol gets the biggest surprise of all--a visit from Abuelita via computer.
Marisol está cumpliendo ocho años y es hora de planear una fiesta de cumpleaños que será fabulosa, maravillosa y divina. También espera que Abuelita, que vive lejos en Perú, pueda venir a la celebración.
En la tienda de fiestas, Marisol no puede decidir qué tipo de fiesta hacer. Nada le parece bien a la Marisol futbolera, pirata, princesa, amante de los unicornios. Finalmente, se le ocurre la idea correcta, y cuando sus amigos llegan para su cumpleaños de Clash Bash, le espera una gran sorpresa. Pero en un giro conmovedor de los acontecimientos, Marisol recibe la mayor sorpresa de todas: una visita de Abuelita a través de una computadora.
